Lombardi to Launch Campaign Site

Providence City Councilman John J. Lombardi, in another sign of his probable mayoral candidacy, is launching a campaign web site, www.lombardiforprovidence.com, tomorrow at noon.

From a press release:

“With the launch of the new site, my ongoing dialogue with the people of Providence concerning the most pressing social, economic, cultural, and political issues of the day will be significantly enhanced,” said Councilman Lombardi.  “Ideas will interactively flow freely in both directions, and our individual perceptions of the city we love will culminate in a shared vision of Providence – one of renewal, hope, and a new dawn of honorable, effective leadership.”

Sounds like an announcement to me. Lombardi, who briefly served as mayor after Buddy Cianci's resignation, has been itching to return to the job ever since.

Perennial candidate Chris Young has already announced that he will challenge Providence Mayor David N. Cicilline, who is running for re-election after weighing a race for governor.
